Treatment and study plan

conventional treatment

Other

Thrice a day for complete length of stay. This is Conventional treatment The total duration of session will be of 15-20 mins.

Scapular mobilization

Other

Thrice a day for complete length of stay including two sets of repetitions with a rest interval of 30 seconds between sets. Grade 1-3 As reported in a study Scapular mobilization (SM) i.e., Scapular superior, inferior glides, upward and downward rotations and scapular distraction, along with Conventional treatment according to American Heart Association Guidelines i.e., Incentive spirometer, chest clearance, expectoration of the sputum (suctioning if needed), mobilizing the patient out of bed, AAROM and AROM exercises.

Primary outcomes

  1. Incentive Spirometer

    Time frame: 1 week

    An incentive spirometer is a device that will expand the lungs by helping the patient breathe more deeply and fully

  2. Borg scale

    Time frame: 1 week

    The Borg Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE) is a way of measuring physical activity intensity level.

  3. Numeric pain rating scale

    Time frame: 1 week

    What is a numerical pain rating scale? The Numerical Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) is a subjective measure in which individuals rate their pain

  4. Digital Spirometer

    Time frame: 1 week

    Spirometer is a portable lung function testing device, which mainly used to examine lung function related parameters for patients
